PART 2
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
1. Scope of Consolidation
(1) The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of KONAMI
CORPORATION (the 'Company') and its 31 consolidated subsidiaries. See '1.
Organization Structure of Konami Group',which shows major subsidiaries.
The number of consolidated subsidiaries increased with the establishment of
the new companies Konami Marketing, Inc. and Konami Software Shanghai,
Inc., and PEOPLE CO., LTD., which was acquired through a tender offer
accompanied by its consolidated subsidiary The Club At Yebisu Garden Co.,
Ltd. Naps Corporation, which was a consolidated subsidiary of PEOPLE CO.,
LTD. at the acquisition, is also included as wholly owned subsidiary of the
Company.
The number of consolidated subsidiaries decreased as follows:
Konami Computer Entertainment Sapporo, Inc. was merged into Konami Computer
Entertainment Yokohama, Inc. (currently named Konami Computer Entertainment
Studios, Inc.). Former Konami Capital, Inc. was merged into Konami Kosan,
Inc. (currently named Konami Capital, Inc.) Konami Amusement of America,
Inc. was merged into Konami of America, Inc. Konami Nissho-Bowl
Entertainment Co., Ltd. was merged into Konami Amusement Operation, Inc. In
addition, Konami do Brasil Ltda. was liquidated as part of the
restructuring of overseas operations, and excluded from the consolidation
scope.
(2) Four subsidiaries are excluded from the scope of consolidation since each
of their net assets, net sales, net income, and retained earnings are
immaterial, and have no significant effect as a whole on the consolidated
financial statements.
2. Application of Equity Method
(1) Two affiliated companies, Mobile 21 Co., Ltd. and TAKARA Co., Ltd., are
accounted for by the equity method.
(2) The equity method is not applied to unconsolidated subsidiaries as they
have no significant effect on the consolidated net income and retained
earnings, and are immaterial as a whole.
3. Fiscal Year-end of Consolidated Subsidiaries
PEOPLE CO., LTD. and The Club At Yebisu Garden Co., Ltd. use a fiscal year-end
at February 28, which is different from that of the Company. Accordingly, the
Company used their pro forma financial statements as of March 31, 2001 for the
consolidated financial statements.
4. Accounting Standards
a. Valuation of Assets
(1) Marketable and Investment Securities
Other investment securities for which the market value is not readily
determinable are stated at cost based on the moving average method.
Other investment securities for which the market value is readily
determinable are stated at fair value as of the balance sheet date.
Unrealized holding gain or loss is reported as a separate component of
shareholders’equity. The cost of securities sold is determined
primarily by the moving average method.
(2) Derivatives
Foreign exchange forward contracts are stated at fair value.
(3) Inventories
Inventories other than merchandise and work in process are stated at cost
determined by the moving average method.
Merchandise is stated at the lower of cost or market, cost being
determined mainly by the first-in, first-out method.
Work in process consisting of hardware products is stated at cost
determined by the moving average method while work in process consisting
of software products is stated at cost determined by the specific
identification method.
b. Depreciation Methods
Tangible fixed assets are depreciated mainly using the declining balance
method while intangible fixed assets are amortized mainly using the
straight-line method. For in-house software, amortization is computed
using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful life of 5
years.
c. Provisions
(1) Allowance for bad debts
Generally, the allowance for bad debts is calculated based on the actual
ratio of bad debt losses incurred. For specific accounts with higher
possibility of bad debt loss, the allowance is determined by independent
judgment.
(2) Allowance for bonuses
As part of estimated bonus payment to employees in the following period,
appropriate amount is provided.
(3) Allowance for retirement benefits (Prepaid pension expense)
Allowance for retirement benefits paid to employees is calculated based on
the estimated amount of the projected benefit obligation and the plan
assets at the year-end.
Generally, unrecognized net transition asset is amortized over 13 years.
Unrecognized actuarial net gain or loss will be amortized from the
following fiscal year within the average remaining service period of 13
years on a straight-line basis.
(4) Liability for directors' retirement benefits
Required amount for the year was reserved as liability under retirement
benefits paid to directors.
d. Foreign Currency Translation
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are
translated at the current exchange rates at each balance sheet date, and
the translation gains and losses are credited or charged to income. Assets
and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated into yen at the
current exchange rate at each balance sheet date while revenue and expenses
are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. Differences
arising from such translation are included as translation adjustments in
minority interest and shareholders'equity.
e. Leases
Finance leases other than those that deem to transfer ownership of the
leased property to the lessee are accounted for as operating lease
transactions.
f. Deferred Assets
Stock issue expenses are charged to income as incurred.
The issuance of new shares by the public offering on March 22, 2001 was
based on the method (the 'new method') an underwriter purchases shares at
an issue price and sells them at an offer price, which is different from
the issue price, to public inventors.
In the new method, the difference between the issue price and the offer
price is the proceeds for underwriter, which is practically underwriting
commission. Therefore, the Company did not pay any underwriting commission
to the underwriter. The total amount of the difference between the issue
price and the offer price for the public offering on March 22, 2001 was
Y2,505 million, which should be accounted for as stock issue expenses if
the underwriter sold the shares at an offer price which was the same as the
issue price (the 'former method').
For the year ended March 31, 2001, with the new method, stock issue
expenses are recognized Y2,505 million less and ordinary income and net
income before income taxes are recognized Y2,505 more compared with the
former method.
g. Consumption Tax
Consumption tax is excluded from the stated amount of revenue and expenses.
5. Valuation of Subsidiaries’Assets and Liabilities
All of assets and liabilities of consolidated subsidiaries are valued at
their fair value.
6. Amortization of Goodwill
The difference between the cost and underlying fair value of the net equity
of investments in subsidiaries at acquisition is amortized on a straight-
line basis over the estimated period or 5 years. Such difference is charged
to income as incurred if the amount is considered immaterial.
7. Appropriation of Retained Earnings
The consolidated statements of retained earnings are prepared based on the
appropriation as proposed for each fiscal year.
8. Cash and Cash Equivalents
The cash and cash equivalents stated in the Consolidated Statements of Cash
Flows consist of cash on hand, all time deposits, and short-term
investments, which have original maturities of three months or less and can
be withdrawn on demand with no diminution of principal.

subsidiaries (except for PEOPLE CO., LTD., Naps Corporation and The Club at
Yebisu Garden Co., Ltd.)
1. The Company and domestic consolidated subsidiaries (except for PEOPLE CO.,
LTD., Naps Corporation and The Club at Yebisu Garden Co., Ltd.) have the non-
contributory defined benefit plan established in March 1986. Full amount of
retirement benefits and lump-sum severance payments based on the regulations
are provided by the plan. Also, the contributory plan has been applied.
A system of voluntary advance retirement payments has been applied to certain
employees who earn annually fixed salaries since August 1998 while the non-
contributory plan is primarily for other employees. In addition, when the
members of the non-contributory plan are qualified for voluntary advance
retirement payments, they must withdraw from the plan.
The Company and domestic consolidated subsidiaries have joined the welfare
pension fund for the computer industry association, a jointly established
contributory plan, since its establishment in October 1989.
Total amount of the contributory plan assets for the Company and domestic
consolidated subsidiaries (except for PEOPLE CO., LTD., Naps Corporation and
The Club at Yebisu Garden Co., Ltd.) is Y2,387 million, which is calculated
based on the ratio of members of the plan.
